Some of America's most unrecognized poetry
is tucked within the lyrics of our songwriters.
for example
from Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel
in the 1960s:
'What a dream I had
pressed in organdy
clothed in crinoline
of smoky burgundy
softer than the rain
'I wandered empty streets down
past the shop displays
I heard cathedral bells
tripping down the alleyways
as I walked on...'
